Cet ouvrage est le fruit de recherches dans les archives bourguignonnes et la documentation étrangère, et vise à combler un vide, puisqu'il n'existe sur ce sujet que des articles d'accès difficiles. Sont d'abord présentées les institutions maritimes: l'amirauté de Flandres et celle d'Artois, Boulonnais, Zélande, Hollande et Frise; la justice maritime; enfin les bailliages de l'eau de l'Ecluse (Sluis) et Arnemuiden. Suivant l'ordre chronologique, on distingue trois phases dans l'histoire navale bourguignonne. Au début de la période, le duc de Bourgogne Philippe la Hardi se montra partisan d'une invasion de l'Angleterre (1385-1386), puis lui-même et ses successeurs adoptèrent une attitude passive jusqu'à la paix d'Arras en 1435. Entre temps eut lieu la guerre de conquête de la Zélande, de la Hollande et de la Frise (1425-1428). Le traité d'Arras signifia le retour à la guerre avec l'Angleterre qui se traduisit par le siège de Calais en 1436.Le rétablissement des relations économiques avec l'Angleterre permit au duc Philippe le Bon de se consacrer aux projets de croisade: il envoya des navires à Rhodes en 1441, participa à la croisade d'aide à Constantinople en 1444-1445 et à celle que devait mener le pape Pie II en 1464. Sous le duc Charles le Téméraire et la duchesse Marie, l'ennemi principal était la France qui accueillit le "faiseur de rois" Warwick en 1470 et la lutte se poursuivit jusqu'en 1482.Un chapitre particulier est consacré aux aspects économiques, notamment la question des prises entre Flamands et Anglais et les guerres des Hollandais contre la Hanse pour l'accès à la mer Baltique. Enfin, sont présentés les différents types de navires, l'armement utilisé et la vie des hommes à bord.

A major new exploration of the history and development of gunpowder weapons in the 15th century based on the artillery of the Dukes of Burgundy. The four Valois Dukes of Burgundy created, in little more than a century, a fabulously wealthy and independent state. Their centralised control and chancellery have bequeathed to us a vast treasure trove of documents, including accounts and inventories of the Masters of the artillery under the later Dukes. Although many of these were extracted and transcribed in the late nineteenth century, modern historians have largely ignored their unprecedented insights into fifteenth-century guns and their use. When Charles the Bold, the last Valois Duke, took on the combined Swiss confederate forces in 1476 he lost not just the battles and his personal fortune, but much of his artillerytrain as well. Of the dozens of cannons captured, at least 25 pieces survive in Swiss museums. The documents that survive from the Valois state give us, almost for the first time in medieval Europe, the ability to see the course of history in a period when Europe was undergoing some of the most profound changes before the 20th century. The Artillery of the Dukes of Burgundy is the first attempt to combine all these sources, bringing newand fresh insights into the development and use of artillery in the fifteenth century. Moreover this is the first modern study of medieval cannon, one of the most important discoveries of the post-classical world. KELLY DeVRIES has authored numerous books and articles on medieval warfare. ROBERT DOUGLAS SMITH formerly Head of Conservation in the Royal Armouries, Tower of London, is an acknowledged expert on medieval artillery. This study is thefirst major fruit of their combined researches.

In The Gattilusio Lordships and the Aegean World 1355-1462, Christopher Wright offers a window into the culturally and politically diverse late medieval Aegean. The overlapping influences of the contrasting networks of power at work in the region are explored through the history of one of many small and distinctive political units that flourished in this fragmented environment, the lordships of the Gattilusio family, centred on Lesbos. Though Genoese in origin, they owed their position to Byzantine authority. Though active in crusading, they cultivated congenial relations with the Ottomans. Though Catholic, they afforded exceptional freedom to the Orthodox Church. Their regime is shown to represent both a unique fusion of influences and a revealing microcosm of its times.

The Newport Medieval Ship is the most important late-medieval merchant vessel yet recovered. Built c.1450 in northern Spain, it foundered at Newport twenty years later while undergoing repairs. Since its discovery in 2002, further investigations have transformed historians’ understanding of fifteenth-century ship technology. With plans in place to make the ship the centrepiece for a permanent exhibition in Newport, this volume interprets the vessel, to enable visitors, students and researchers to understand the ship and the world from which it came. The volume contains eleven chapters, written by leading maritime archaeologists and historians. Together, they consider its significance and locate the vessel within its commercial, political and social environment.

Hono sapiens, homo pugnans, and so it has been since the beginning of recorded history. In the Middle Ages, especially, armed conflict and the military life were so much a part of the political and cultural development that a general account of this period is, in large measure, a description of how men went to war.
